Pappardelle Pasta and Italian Sausage Tofurky


This refreshing pasta dish will be perfect for dinner. The slight lemon edge to the pasta along with the spice taste of the Tofurky make it all come together and work.


Italian Sausage Tofurky
Roasted Spaghetti Sauce worked well with this, but hey use what ever sauce you love.
Lemon Pepper Pappardelle Pasta
One fresh Lemon
Quattro Formaggio Cheese


Take you pot of water and bring to a boil
Put Olive oil and Sea Salt into the water
Put the Lemon Pepper Pappardelle Pasta into water. I like to break up the pasta for easy handling
Allow pasta to cook as stated on instructions.

Along side past pour your Rosted Spaghetti Sauce
Take one to four of your Italian Sausages and cut into bite size chucks and put into sauce to simmer and reach a warm temp together so the juices and the sauce marry to bring out each others best part.

Now serve the pasta in your beautuful white pasta bowl
Take your fresh lemon and squezze generiously onto pasta
Now spoon a fabulous amount of Toasted spaghetti sauce and Italian Sausage onto your pasta
Last but not least put your fingers into the Quattro formaggio chesse and spirnkle all over this precious dinner.

Done pour some light red wine and enjoy

Italian Breakfast that's fab



You will have an even better time with breakfast when fooling your taste buds and mind with this easy meal. Make sure you kitchen has each item so the next time you want to have fun you'll be ready!

Capellini pasta
Eggs scrambled
Genova Pesto
Sundried tomatoes
Grated Parmesan cheese

Pull as much pasta as needed. I like to break pasta into three equal parts so it's better to fork. Add olive oil and sea salt to your water and wait to boil.
Place Trader Joe's Capellini Past into boiling water and stir cooking instructions are on package, but it's about three minutes.

Simotaniously cook your scrambled eggs. One egg per serving should do you. So crack your egg into container and add soy milk and salt and pepper and stir until your egg's are well blended. Now grab your skillet and use olive oil spray or whatever you have handy to make your pan easy to work with so the eggs come out of the pan smoothly after cooking...not sticking to the dang pan. Make sure your skillet is hot before putting your eggs in to cook.

Now let's bring it all together: Drain your pasta and place into each persons pasta bowl, take some Trader Joe's Genova Pasta and spread lightly over pasta place a good clump of scrambled eggs on top of pasta
Now put a spoon into your sundried Tomatoes in olive oil and generiously sprinkle onto the eggs and pasta.
Next take a spoon and dip into your Grated Parmesan Cheese and sprinkle all over the whole dish. YUMMY.

Sit back and enjoy.
Eat fabulous and live

Sexy & Smart Place to Eat




If you live in Southern California or will be visting in the near future do your self a favor and eat at 118 Degrees in Costa Mesa, California. This warm, relaxing and innovative restaurant will inspire you away with fine food and spirits! An acquaintance wanted to turn me on to a restaurant where I could have anything on the menu. Being a vegetarian this doesn't happen all that often. I gladly accepted his offer and boy am I glad I did. My visit was at 118's dinner time. As we drove into the parking lot my date noted that all parking spaces had a label for i.e. peace, joy faith etc etc. the design of the environment expressed a sense of sensitivity and design. There was a soft glow of warm, welcoming light that emanated from the warm wood and floor to ceiling glass front to the whole restaurant. The service was warm, helpful and done with smooth timing. We were in a bit of hurry since the second part of our date was a hot fashion show at South Coast Plaza's Bloomingdale's. This evening of fun with my handsome date would have positive and long reaching effects no one could imagine.

Do your self a favor and check this place out. You also learn more about the chief and owner at my podcast on SOUNDS FABULOUS. Keep on the look out for the new magazine CLOUT coming out in March of 08. I've been commissioned to write the restaurant review for the magazine and I'll be featuring 118.
Now think fabulous

Newsroom West Hollywood


Spontaneously I drove up to have a late lunch & pick up a few things. My omens took me to the door of The Newsroom CafĂ© at 120 North Robinson Blvd in West Hollywood. I recall hearing my Ex boyfriend telling me it was vegetarian friendly. Fabulous shops like Kiehl “s of New York and dozen chick stores surround it. (Hello Men buy stuff some times)
I walked into the Newsroom and there’s and good buzz vibe going on. Not to load not to boring. Being one dude they sat me in the back of the room up against the wall near the entrance of the kitchen and the restroom. In this part of LA there is so much eye candy I felt my location was just perfect. The men and women who eat here are…how should I say HOT and well dressed.
I ordered a glass of chardonnay, Small Caesar Salad, 9-filled Ravioli. The service from the moment I walked in the door was prompted and friendly and remained consistent in my whole experience. My Food server was cool about helping me make last second decisions on my purchases. She also always doubled back to make sure all was well. My wine appeared and I was satisfied with the oak taste of the house wine. Next my small Caesar salad came. I was bummed I had to toss it my self, but the handy side of dressing and side if cheese allowed me to chose just how much I wanted. GROSS! The salad was bad to start with, but I thought I needed perhaps to get use to it. NOPE! There was so much salt in the dressing that it made my whole body shakes at one point like I had the chills. Shit…I like salt but not a salt block in a salad. I was thrilled as I finished my salt block salad I was allowed a couple of minutes before my main dish of 9-filled Rav arrived. It shows a lot of class when your courses don’t land on top of each other. The main course was very good and I loved the flat bread for dipping into the tomato sauce that was layered over my Rav’s. However I asked for a second serving of flat bread and I came promptly, but was not the same consistence as the first one. The second one was not as well cooked. The check was brought when the sweet, confident server could tell I was done. The meals coast me about $33.00 and were worth it.
This spot does not have a web sit. OMG. 310-652-4444

Crazy Fabulous Cool Sandwich



This crazy sandwich must not be missed. I thought I was out of my mind as I was creating it, but I was in my right mind. This is however a time dated rush. Pumpkin Butter is seasonal and it makes this meal the one that you've never had before and will be glad you did.
Take your Zucchini Squash and cut it in to 1/4 slices about five or six per serving. Sit on side until your ready to put on sandwich
Get your Whole Wheat Bread and lather it with Pumpkin Butter
Then Grab Sliced Lite Swiss Cheese and put on large cut piece onto our bread.
Now put you 5-6 Zucchini Squash on covering the most of our sliced bread
Now sprinkle you 21 Season Salute and your Cinnamon onto your food
Now grab your fresh Sprouts and make a blanket over the piece with all your goodies on it.
Now put our sandwich together and put into over broiler or Toaster oven for just a couple of minutes to melt the cheese.
Now enjoy the taste of the season.

Tomato & Basil Hummus dip $1.99 spread this puppy from end to end.

Next Vegetable Brochette $ 2.99 use a fork to forgo some of the oil, but allowing to use most of it to add to your flavor. Fork on a good amount of the variety of ingredients contained in this well rounded Brochette.
